Outside of local allegiance and/or gambling. Why would anyone root for the Patriots? It's like rooting for Drago to beat Rocky.

Quite a bit of money on them today and a few hundred on them winning the Super Bowl from a few weeks back.

I enjoy watching Brady do that thing he does on final drives in 4th quarter/OT.

YUP. I used to hate them up until the win over the Seahawks. Then I realized they are just too good not to like.

Behind them 1488%

The Germans said the same things about Hitler in 1944. Doesn't make it right.

Of course but you shouldn’t root for it.

It's like rooting for the Empire in Star Wars, the Nazis in Indiana Jones, the Cowboys in The Little Giants! It's downright un-American to root for the Patriots.

Sure. How is this fun? Same old shit every year? And yeah I realize the irony of saying that as an nba fan. Some variety would be nice in both leagues.

The NBA's got nothing on a guy who's been going to the Super Bowl almost every year for 17 years. I made that joke about "the best of the '80s, '90s, and today" a couple weeks ago, but damn, Brady is yet another reminder that we're at the End of History.

I agree. I didn't jump on the Brady bandwagon late so I feel like I've been along for the journey for nearly all of his career.

I jumped on way late but I can't deny what I've seen. He's above average.

Slightly above average. When you watch him late in games you always expect for him to make the plays to win. He rarely disappoints.

It's also insane to me that he's never sacked. He's 40 fucking years old and can't run. WTF?
